(Grade: A)Ī God Name Kroo is a "funny" Kuttner story, in the vein of the Gallagher stories or the aforementioned Hogben hillbilly mutant family stories.
Both Marion Zimmer Bradley and Lin Carter praised the story heavily in the pages of Thrilling Wonder Stories a few months after it came out. (Grade: A-)Ītomic! is a five-chapter novelet that involves a giant mutated lake and mind control. Merritt, but with Kuttner's sense of plotting and underlying wit. Lots of great descriptive writing an a tragic ending. The Power and the Glory is the story of a secret world on top of an Alaskan mountain. It deals with a team of mutants that includes a guy with wings, a psychic, a cyclops, and a guy who shoots death rays out of his eyes. The first one reads like Stan Lee must have read it before launching the X-Men (it came out about 20 years earlier).
So far I've read the following novels and stories, none of which have (to my knowledge) ever been reprinted: I'm on vacation this week (so naturally I'm posting to the Paizo boards), and I've had a chance to read a lot of Kuttner while stranded at airports and on planes.
